The many friends in Staunton of the
family of Mr.. J. w. Morrison, will receive
in sadness the news Of the death of his
lovely daughter, Mrs. May Fries, which
occurred at Jacksonville, Fla, on the 10th,
where Mr.. Morrison now resides. She had
been married only about year and was
quite young. The disease which caused
her death was pneumonia.
The revival services at the SomervilIe
building Second Baptist room). under the
supervision of Elder j. G. Howe and
Evangelist j. Dopavan, seem to continue
with an increasing interest. Preaching is
announced for every evening during this
week. There have been eight or ten con-
versions up to this time, and number OF
others are seriously interested in the good
work.
Mr.. John Kelly, the venerable proprie'
tor of Sweet Chalybeate Springs. Va, was
severely burned about the face last week
He was sitting in an invalfd's chair smok-
ing, when handkerchief around his neck
took fire, which he was unable to eXtin
gish in his enfeebled condition. His cries
for help called to his side assistance, When
the fire was extinguished, but not until
Mr.. Kelly was severely burned.
Lewis H. Reamer. the four year old son
of Mr.. John Reamer, was found dead il
bed on Sunday morning last. He was sleep
ing with another little child, when the lat

ing cold. The father left his bed to look
after the children, and remarked to his
wife that both of them felt cold, and es-
pecially the little boy. Mrs. Reamer got
light and on close inspection was startled
to find thab the child was dead. Heart
disease was the cause.

already seen. refused to pay the taxes due
in money, but insisted upon their right to

MRS. JOHN SACHI AND HER
son BADLY BURNED.
The Victims of Kerosene.

About noon to-day while Mrs. John
Schi was pouring some kerosene into a
pot of starch which she was
cooking. the flame caught the oil, ex-
ploded the can in an instant and COW
cred the unfortunate woman in sheet
of fire. She gathered up her little boy
two years old, thinking, as she said
that the house would burn, and ran
into the street screaming.
Her home is at POS Carter street and
neighbors next door came at once to
assistance. Messre. Foster Check and
Sidney LeGros were passing and sue
ceeded in stripping off the burning
clothing and probably saved the poor
woman's life. She was taken in
and placed upon a bed,
when DIR. Wilson who was at hand was
called in to treat her. She is burned ter.
ribly ON tho right side and back, arm and
hand, and the hurt may be fatal, although
the doctor thought she would he well in
six or eight weeks. Her pain was relieved
by morphine, and little could
be told of her injury. The little boy was
badly burned on the leg and back, but his
injury is not serious. He caught on fire
from his mother when she carried him out
of the houfe. Mr.. John schi is fireman of
hose engine No. /.

The Bullet that Did the Deadly
Work.

Mr.. Ed. Dreeben, of Sulphur
Springs, brother of Soloman Dree-
ben, who was murdered last week
near Wylie, came to the Sheriff's office
this morning and turned over to
Sheriff Lewis a IS pistol ball which
had been found buried in the dry
goods box which was in the wagon at
the time Dreeben was murdered.
From circumstances which surround
the affair, Mr.. Dreebcn is of the opin-
ion that i. is the ball that went
through the body of his brother
The Sheriff took charge of the bullet,
and it may, in the end, be of value in
fastening the crime upon the right
party.
Mr.. Dreeben says there is some
further information concerning the
killing which he does not deem
proper to disclose.

OLD SOILS RAYS.
Another Day Of Perspiring People and
Humping Thermometers.

Another Day of Perspiring People and
Humping Thermometers.
Yesterdays record kept up old Soils
fame much to the disgust Of the average
citizen. Isn't it hotr' began in the early
morn and continued all day with few varia-
tions. Thin coats and no vests was the order
of the day, and even then the load seemed
uncomfortable. But notwithstanding all this
one felt comparative cool when reading of
the heat i'll other localities.
Themorning was very close and sultrv
and one or two cases of being overcome by
the heat were reported. Mr.. Murphy
Baker, who has been suffering for some
weeks past with iaundice, attempted to take
a short walk, but was overcome by the heat
and fell to the ground He was carried TO
his residence and a physician summoned
and IS now fully recovered. Several clerks
on Broughton street had slight attacks, but
recovered by promptly taking reStoratives
Drinking ice cold water when heated by
walking or other exercise was the cause Of
most of them.
The average mean temperature in the city
Yesterday was S0' The highest range of
the Thermometer was 95.S', and the lowest
T.S'. The average temperature, it via
be SEEM was g less than Mondays scorcher
In the district news was received by the OBJ
stations In a majority of these
the mean temperature was even greater
than Monday, four Of them reporting 1903
average and Waycross the highest, 104'
Savannah was actually the coolest station
in the district. The total average for the
district was 1912, two stations report
ing slight rainfall. The wires being
down last night full reports from north of
here wero understandable. At this station, 3
O'Clock yesterday, the barometer fell TO 20 Sc,
showing the presence of the storm to be in
this vicinity, but at 10 o'clock last night it
rose to 299S. In the afternoon Charlotte,
N. c., reported the barometer at
1886, while all other stations were
about normal, but since then no information
has been obtained. At o'clock Yesterday
the thermometer at Augusta registered IS
and Charleston So. Information received
at the station from Washington, reported a
cool wave moving this way, which will be
! Immediately followed by very warm
weather, but not as hot as the past week S
experience. A remarkable thing about the
predictions this month, thus far shows that
| for this section the reports have been very
| true, and the Bureau is credited with loo

A Unique Tick ct.

The MORNING NEWS is indebted TO B. W.
Wrenn, Esq, General Passenger and Ticket
Agent of the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia railway, for complimentary ticket
of the lines of that railway in Tennessee on
the occasion of the excursion of the Tennes-
see Press Association. The ticket is in the
form of paste pot, that potent factor in a
well regulated newspaper Office, and when
opened is an eight-page folder, illustrated
with representations of the various phases
of editorial life. The ticket ex-
pires on Aug. l. One of
the cartoons represents an editor walking
home, counting cross-ties, emblematic of
the fate that awaits him who attempts to use
the ticket after the date mentioned. Mr..
Wrenn has been noted for the beautiful and
appropriate designs in the "art that illus
trates all arts" but the souvenir of the paste
pot excels all others The MORNING News
cannot send a representative on the excur-
sion, but if it could Tennessee is too far
away to run the risk of having to walk

Charleston Notes.

The State Superintendent of Education
has accepted the bid of Edward Perry &
Co, of Charleston, to print 500 district
school register books.
The contractors commenced work Mon
day on the central fire stationhouse to be
erected on the artesian well lot. A large
force of hands has been set to work digging
trenches for the foundations.
The County Commissioners want bids for
repairing the Charleston court house and
fireproof building, according to plans and
specifications to be seen at their office. All
bids must be put in by Aug. next.
Over ,, 900 excuIsionists visited Charleston
Monday and Tuesday, and had the accom-
modations been greater, another 1000
would have been there. The Silver Star
made trips about the harbor, and base ball
and other amusements attracted others of
the visitors. Tuesday the conductors ran
excursions from Florence Savannah, Beau
fort and ali points on the Northeastern and
the Charleston and Savannah roads.

Gillen's Fate Deserved.

MILDLY Gillen, wife of Edward Gillen, the
negro killed near Granville Monday while
resisting arrest, says he often threatened to
kill her. They have been married four
years, but have not lived together for some
time He has often threatened her bodily
harm, and when she refused to accompany
him to Charleston last Sunday he savagely
said he would shoot her. She went
alone, and on the return trip,
while sitting in the seat with a
colored man, Gillen entered the
car. The demon of jealousy took possession
of him, and he at once shot at her, and then
snapped the pistol at the negro sitting be-
side her, a young fellow named VIII H.
Green. Fooled in his murderous object, he
ran to the car door, fred one shot back at
his wife, and then jumped off and fed to
the woods. Word was Immediately sent
out, and he was apprehended and killed, as
narrated in yesterdays MORNING NEWS.
